Pedestrian Accidents

Were You Seriously Injured In A Crash?

Pedestrians lack the same physical protections motorists enjoy in their
vehicles, which is why there are a number of strict laws in place to protect
them. However, legal protections can only do so much to stop a reckless
or negligent driver from causing a serious crash. No matter which protected
area you were walking along at the time of the accident, you deserve the
chance to fight for your rights in court or at the negotiation table to
secure the compensation you need to cover any medical expenses or other
damages you may have incurred.

The Dangers Of Being A Pedestrian

Safety organizations are constantly publishing studies investigating the
dangers of driving. In 2014, Smart Growth America’s National Complete
Streets Coalition released a study,
Dangerous by Design (PDF), that quantified the risk of being a pedestrian in different states and
major metropolitan areas across the country. Their Pedestrian Danger Index
(PDI) calculates the likeliness that a pedestrian could be hit and killed
in a car crash. Researchers determined the national average to be 52.2
– the Tampa – St. Petersburg – Clearwater area scored
a 190.13, the second most dangerous area for pedestrians in the nation.
